Carbonates in amorphous materials, such as viscous silicate melts, become stable at extreme depths of the Earth🌍, scientists have found using 3 beamlines at ESRF. The results can shed light on hotspot volcanism.🌋 They are published in @CommsEarth . ▶️bit.ly/40d6GND

A pressure-induced change in hybridization of carbon from sp2 to sp3 occurs between 40 GPa and 112 GPa, which could increase the potential for storage of carbon in lower mantle silicate melts. @CerantolaV @unimib @EuropeanXFEL @esrfsynchrotron @deepcarb nature.com/articles/s43247-0…
